¶ … web on database processing?
Before the event of the World Wide Web, database processing was relatively limited to one database area, within one system of complied computer data. In other words, in a medical office, patient records had to be entered by data entry staff into a singular computer database, but could not be shared with another office if the patient was seeing another physician in another office, unless a currier brought a disk or printed files to the office.
